The reason why I found this is because I was looking at making my own horizontal burger broiler like the one you saw on the show Dee. Gonna make mine natural gas. Water tray on the bottom.

Was looking at a couple infrared burners but might just make some burners from black pipe. Will be a simple design that will use a burger basket like his design.

That thing would be ok if you were continually grilling burgers for a couple hours. That is a lot of charcoal for just a couple burgers however. But a gas unit makes sense. Just turn it on when you need it.
Why not just use your Big Easy?  I have done burgers this way for years!

Tommy it is direct flame contact. The burners are just inches away. If you saw the video that Dee was talking about you would understand.

Here is what the broiler looks like...

Looks like a Ron Popeil knockoff of the original hamburger cooker at Louis' Lunch. Like Dee said it is a gas cooker. Funny I just got through watching a show on the Travel Channel of the greatest burger joints in America and Louis' was on there as the first hamburger ever cooked in America.

To my my design would cost very little money to make. It would be just for fun.
